Lab Assignment 4: PseudoButtons

HotSpot showed a way to simulate the action of buttons

In this assignment you are to define a new class of window objects called CPseudoButton, which act similar to the class CButton. Your solution should satisfy the following requirements:

• Should look visually distinctive on the window (color, shape,border,etc)
• Like CButton should display a string denoting its purpose
• Change their appearance when the mouse is moved over them.
• Should repaint correctly
• Should generate an appropriate message when clicked
• Using these pseudobuttons should be similar to using CButtons (messagemaps etc.)
• Submit your implementation solution (including a makefile).
